Terramycin is made from Oxytetracycline Hydrochloride which is the hydrochloride salt form of oxytetracycline, a tetracycline derivative produced by Streptomyces rimosus exhibiting antimicrobial activity. Oxytetracycline hydrochloride interferes with the binding of aminoacyl-tRNA to the mRNA-ribosome complex, thereby preventing peptide elongation and inhibiting protein synthesis. It is often used to treat skin conditions.

This product works well for Pinkeye in cattle. I gave it 4 stars because of the difficulty of using the puffer pack – it’s a bit like a tomato sauce bottle – either it doesn’t come out or it all comes out at once.
